TORUK – The First Flight

When: Fri., March 3 2017

Inspired by James Cameron’s sci-fi flick Avatar, TORUK – The First Flight aims to “transport you to the world of Pandora in a visually stunning live setting” The latest Cirque du Soleil production, the show features “a riveting fusion of cutting-edge visuals, puppetry and stagecraft buoyed by a soaring cinematic score.” The live immersive experience serves as a “living ode” to the Na’vi’s symbiotic coexistence with nature and their belief in the basic interconnectedness of all living things. Narrated by a “Na’vi Storyteller,” the performance centers on a mythical tale set thousands of years before the events depicted in Cameron’s film and before any humans ever set foot on Pandora. The show comprises 13 creators under the artistic guidance of Guy Laliberté (Guide) and Jean-François Bouchard (Creative Guide). Tonight’s show takes place at 7:30 at the Q, where performances continue through Sunday. Tickets start at $49. (Niesel)
